I didn't try this yet, but what do you think about this.
1. Snapshot-1 = winXPproSP2 + Total Uninstall (TU) 2. I copy snapshot-1 to snapshot-2 3. I copy snapshot-2 to snapshot-3 The final result : I have 3 snapshots with the same contents. 4. I boot in snapshot-1 and I install Adobe Reader (AR) monitored by TU. 5. I boot in snapshot-2 and I install CCleaner (CC) monitored by TU. 6. I boot in snapshot-3 and I install Amust Registry Cleaner (ARC) monitored by TU. 7. I copy/update from snapshot-2 to snapshot-1 8. I copy/update from snapshot-3 to snapshot-1 After that : Snapshot-1 = winXPproSP2 + TU + AR + CC + ARC. I'm sure that AR, CC and ARC will be fine, but what about TU ? My assumption is that TU is corrupted or at least not correct. ![]() (I can keep TU correct, if I don't do it this way, but than the fun would be gone.)

No ErikAlbert
Snapshot #1 would only contain 'winXPproSP2 + TU +ARC.' That's it!. |

ROFL. Actually what you will have is snapshot -1 will be WinXPproSP2 + ARC period. Step 7 ended up being a waste of time. TU will be fine per Snapshot-3. Note the updates aren't cumulative. So in step 7 you over wrote snapshot-1 with Snapshot-2 Then In step 8 you again over wrote Snapshot -1 with Snapshot-3 |

Yeah, I can understand the confusion.
When you do copy/update (or refresh? ), you should be thinking of 'make equal to'.Files that exist in #3 and don't exist in #1 will be copied to #1. Files that exist in #1 and don't exist in #3 will be deleted from #1. The result will be that #1 is equal to #3, while #3 is dominant. |

Oh I see, my mistake. Well if I would have tried it for real, I would have noticed it of course.
I can understand why everybody is laughing at me now.

I think this is much better.
1. Snapshot-1 = winXPproSP2 + Total Uninstall (TU) + AR monitored by TU. 2. I copy/update snapshot-1 to snapshot-2 3. I reboot in snapshot-2 and install CC monitored by TU 4. I copy snapshot-2 to snapshot-3 5. I reboot in snapshot-3 and install ARC monitored by TU. After that : Snapshot-3 = winXPproSP2 + TU + AR + CC + ARC and TU will be fine. If I refresh Snapshot-1 with snapshot-3 both are equal.

Not really laughing at you. It just was funny. Besides we've all done stuff like that, thats partly why it is funny. |

Yep that gets it. Actually you could also skip refreshing snap-1 at the end at have a fallback to any of the situations if you so chose. |
